Different type when mouseover

---

Hey,

I was trying to make the type turns italic/oblique style or bold when hover on the site title or menu links, but there's not a default option for it. It would be great to have the option of choosing a different type –style or even family– to get some cool effects.

I guess it can be done by using custom CSS, but it would be a good default option at Customize. Right now you can only play with color, opacity or stroke.

Here's an example when hover on the menu titles: http://www.portikus.de

Hope it sounds good. Thanks!

I just see that I can't do it neither into a paragraph, so if I change the Paragraph style of some words or sentences using the editor, it will change the whole paragraph.

If we use a default type it won't be a problem because it has the Italic or Bold button for it, but when using custom webfonts or different families for each style, is not possible right now.

The same is happening with Links in Text option, it would be great if you could improve it.

Hope it helps. Thanks!

+1 for more options on links and their states.

Regarding the inline editing of type: That’s not a bug, that’s a feature.
If you change a paragraph style it changes the paragraph, makes complete sense. That’s the same behaviour found in InDesign and other Applications.

For changing the appearance of some words you need a <span> tag around them (a wee bit like how character styles in ID work). You could / should predefine these character styles in the Text Formats of lay-theme:

Hope that helps.

@edgrbnz that's true, thanks! I saw you also have the option of writing in html and add the span and the class of the paragraph by yourself.
